Romie Adler's Musical Guide

Chapter 36: "Therapy" - All Time Low

Lyrics:

My ship went down in a sea of sound
When I woke up alone, I had everything
A handful of moments, I wished I could change
And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade

In a city of fools, I was careful and cool
But they tore me apart like a hurricane
A handful of moments, I wished I could change
But I was carried away

Give me a
THERAPY
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
THERAPY
You were never a friend to me
And you can keep all your misery

My lungs gave out as I faced the crowd
I think that keeping this up could be dangerous
I'm flesh and bone, I'm a rolling stone
And the experts say I'm delirious

Give me a
THERAPY
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
THERAPY
You were never a friend to me
You can take back your misery

Arrogant boy
Love yourself so no one has to
They're better off without you
(They're better off without you)
Arrogant boy
Cause a scene like you're supposed to
They'll fall asleep without you
You're lucky if your memory remains

Give me a
THERAPY
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
THERAPY
You were never a friend to me
You can take back your misery

THERAPY
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
THERAPY
You were never a friend to me
And you can choke on your misery

"Wake up!" Jax unexpectedly yelled at me.

       I felt something hard knock against my ankle, I screamed out in slight pain.

"What was that for?" I gurgled out in a low voice.

       It was morning -- for me -- I could feel the hangover from last night's shots kicking in, and Jax was standing at the end of my bed, looking at me with an unpleasant look on his face.

"There's a story that involves you on the TMZ website." Jax barked out at me.

       I muttered 'what?' as I picked up Jax's phone, the object that he threw at me. I looked at the article that was already on Jax's phone screen, and I wasn't pleased. The title of the article read: 'Wild Child Romie Adler Does It Again.' Does what again? And, why am I now known as the 'wild child? What did I ever do to TMZ to deserve that title?
       The main picture of the article was of Charlie and I practically stumbling out of the club, but that wasn't the only incriminating picture in the article. Someone also got a picture of me giving Dex a warm hug hello -- I knew I shouldn't have greeted him like that -- and there was a still of the first I had with Myles outside the club.
       Mostly what I was upset about, was what they talked about in the article. I applaud whoever wrote this story for how they sold the story about last night, it wasn't dull that's for sure; It was totally and completely false though. What was true apparently, Dex and Myles got into a fist fight in the club after I left. They got into a fight because of -- or so the article says -- of me. Now, everybody thinks that I'm a boyfriend stealer -- previous article about Jax -- a tease, and a maneater. The article suggests that Dex and Myles were fighting because I couldn't choose between them, so they decided to deck it out, and I left before shit went down.
        This is just yet another article that says I broke up another friendship. I guess my lips are made of cocaine or something, because I ruin guys' lives.
